Now that you have the perfect set of two or three go-to promotions that really work, how do you maximize the number of people who see each one?Social media.Cidewalk’s main power comes from its ability to geo-target your promotion to people in an area of your choosing. Combined with the power of social media, which allows you to post updates to people already interested in your brand and your business, it delivers a one-two promotional “punch” that you can use again and again.Remember, you can share your promotion on social media (or anywhere else, with your unique promo URL) even after your promotion has reached its chosen view count!Here are ways you can harness the best parts of Cidewalk and social media to get maximum, targeted reach for your best promotions:1. Use the “Share on Facebook” button to share your promotion to a network of targeted people who have already taken interest in your business or brand.
